Arkansas basketball has an All-American for the fourth straight year.
Senior guard JD Notae was named to the Associated Press’ All-America third-team on Tuesday, just two days before his team begins their NCAA Tournament against Vermont.
Notae, in his second season with the Razorbacks, averaged 18.4 points per game to go with 4.5 rebounds and 3.7 assists. He could return for a final season with Arkansas in 2022-23, though no decision has yet been made.
Notae’s selection follows that of Moses Moody last year, Mason Jones in 2020 and Daniel Gafford in 2019. Those three players were all named Honorable Mention All-Americans. Notae is the first outright selection since Bobby Portis in 2015.
The fourth-seeded Razorbacks tip against Vermont on Thursday night at 8:20 p.m.
